Trends in the Hydrogen Evolution Activity of Metal Carbide Catalysts

Michalsky, Ronald, Zhang, Yin-Jia, Peterson, Andrew A.·2014·ACS Catalysis

Abstract

Metal carbide catalysts are alternative nonprecious electrode materials for electrochemical energy conversion devices, such as for H 2 fuel cells or electrolyzers. In this article, we report the experimental exchange current densities for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) on eight mono- and bimetallic carbide electrocatalysts and correlate the current densities to hydrogen binding energies that we have calculated via electronic structure computations. We find these materials to have activities higher than those of their parent metals and intermediate between the catalytic activities of the Pt group and early transition-metal surfaces. Increased HER activities on metal carbides relative to their parent metals can be understood with a 3-fold higher sensitivity of metal carbides to the coverage-induced weakening of hydrogen adsorption relative to metal surfaces. The trends presented here can be useful for the design of bimetallic carbide electrocatalysts.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
